[Closed] How far from the end of the bars 'should' my hands be?

OK highly subjective I know but...

I start with my hands at the end of the bars but they seem to end up about an inch in.

Is this my body telling me that I need narrower bars?

Or rather to cut down the existing ones!

Or a shorter stem?

Are you moving them for a better position on the brake lever? Move the lever out?

Not sure whether it really has anything to do with lever position or bar width. I always hold my grips as far out as I can, just how I've always done it regardless of bar width.

Just grip the bars where its comfy. Some people grip right at the end of the bars, I dont.
